Control considerations for optimum power proportionment in turbine-propeller engines

Marcus F. Heidmann, David Noviknaca-tn-1762Dec 1948

A turbine-propeller engine operating at constant speed was analyzed in order to provide information relative to, factors influencing optimum proportionment of power between propeller and jet, improvement in engine performance attainable from controlled proportionment of power, and control relations for optimum proportionment of power.
